Isn't the flange to film plane distance quite a bit shorter on the mft 
cameras? That would require an optical converter.

OK, after doing some reading, I would think that the standard 4/3 lens
wouldn't fit on a MFT mount.  I'd be OK with a purpose-designed lens.

Any experience with flash - would my FL-50 be compatible?  That would keep
overall cost down...
